Zoologist Lucy Cooke is on a mission to educate people about sloths. Her new book
The Power Of Sloth is full of the most irresistible sloth photos known to mankind so we just had to share some of the very sweetest. Here baby sloths are shown in a basket. They love to hug so much that collectively they form a cuddle puddle. Photograph: Lucy Cooke
